Why John Elway is entering his most important offseason with the Broncos

Now flip the calendar to 2019. Elway again has hired an experienced coach with a defensive background, 60-year-old Vic Fangio. He’s traded for a former Super Bowl MVP in quarterback Joe Flacco.

Robert Kraft reflects on 25th anniversary of becoming Patriots owner

“In life, I think it’s important to dream big. My dream was to be able to own the NFL franchise that I adored and was passionate about. I wanted the privilege of trying to run it in my own hometown. [That day] a lot of things came together,” he said. “It’s unbelievable to me; I […]

Steelers brace for ‘tough’ reality of losing top talent

No need to tell Pittsburgh Steelers president Art Rooney II about the difficulties of finding transcendent talents. He has seen three absurdly good players — linebacker Ryan Shazier, wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le’Veon Bell — lead his team to victories only to leave the lineup, potentially for good. “That’s one reason why […]

Son Heung-min’s South Korea overcame China, but Team Dragon still have Wu Lei to call on

South Korea have Son Heung-min, and China have Wu Lei. The two may not be at the same level in terms of talent or renown, but the Chinese attacker is as important to Marcello Lippi’s side as Son is to Paulo Bento’s. This was made all the more clear on Wednesday when the teams met […]

Coach Steve Kerr, Warriors players praise Mavs rookie Luka Doncic

The Golden State Warriors believe that Dallas Mavericks rookie Luka Doncic is not only an All-Star-caliber player but also a superstar in the making. Even on a night when Stephen Curry scored 48 points and hit 11 3-pointers in a 119-114 win over the Mavericks, it was Doncic’s promise that was a large topic of […]

Never bury Tom Brady: The GOAT was toast in K.C. — now he’s back

Tom Brady had to make it back to Kansas City with his job very much intact, didn’t he? If his football obituary was not written at Arrowhead Stadium in the fall of 2014, critics did at least start warming up that obit in the bullpen. Brady was 37 back then, and he was so dreadful […]
